I find it’s easier to get finer cuts with a number three as it has a smaller reference surface… but that’s by such a miniscule amount as to barely bother mentioning.

also because the blade isn’t as wide it’s quicker to sharpen.

Other than that, I think if Al Qaida came to power tomorrow and outlawed the number 3 – I think I could make it comfortably enough without being stoned to death. There’s nothing a number 3 does that a 4 doesn’t.

So if you’re in the market for buying both, I’d say just buy a number 4 and put that money towards one GOOD plane, rather than two pretty okay planes.
